DATAIR Offers Cash Balance/401(k) Combo Plans

The Illinois-based DATAIR Employee Benefit Systems, Inc., has released a new suite of software, training and support services for consultants and administrators of 401(k) plans.

These services will enable such consultants and administrators to offer cash balance/401(k) combo plans, according to the firm. Such plans may give employers, who want to maximize their own tax-deferred contributions, the means to increase the benefits they might get from a cross-tested new comparability plan. Cash balance plans offer defined contribution plan account balances and employee communications coupled with the higher deductibility limits available to defined benefit plans.

DATAIR’s “Cash Balance/401(k) Suite” offers features such as:
